A sample of gaseous PCl5 was introduced into an evacuated flask so that the pressure of pure PCl5 would be 0.50 atm at 523 K. Ho

wever, PCl5 decomposes to gaseous PCl3 and Cl2, and the actual pressure in the flask was found to be 0.78 atm. Calculate Kp for the decomposition reaction PCl5(g) PCl3(g) Cl2(g) at 523 K. Also, calculate K at this temperature.

Answer:

Kp = 0.35 & Kc = 0.0075

Explanation:

                                PCl₅ ⇄ PCl₃ + Cl₂

Initial(atm)                 0.5         0       0

At equilibrium         0.5 - p      p       p

  • Total pressure at equilibrium = 0.78
  • 0.5 - p + p + p = 0.78
  • p = 0.28

So partial pressure of PCl₅ = 0.5 - 0.28 = 0.22 atm

Similarly PCl₃ = 0.28 atm & Cl₂ = 0.28 atm

According to law of mass action

     

  •                  Kp     =       \frac{(Ppcl3)(Pcl2)}{(Ppcl5)}
  •                  Kp     =     \frac{(0.28)(0.28)}{(0.22)}
  •                  Kp     =     0.35

We know Kp = Kc x (RT)Δng

               Δng = change in gaseous moles

                       = product moles - reactant moles

                       = 2 - 1

                        = 1

R = universal gas constant = 0.0821 lit. atm. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹

 So Kc = \frac{(0.35) }{(0.0821 )(523 K)}

            = 0.0081

What is the percent composition by mass of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2 (gram-formula= 164 g/mol)?
Neko [114]
To find this, we will use this formula:

Molar mass of element
------------------------------------ x 100
Molar mass of compound

So, first lets calculate the mass of the compound as a whole. We use the atomic masses on the periodic table to determine this.

Ca: 40.078 g/mol
N2 (there is two nitrogens): 28.014 g/mol
O6 (there are six nitrogens: 3 times 2): 95.994 g/mol

When we add all of those numbers up together, we get 164.086. That is the molar mass for the whole compound. However, we are trying to figure out what percent of the compound oxygen makes up. From the molar mass, we know that 95.994 of the 164.086 is oxygen. Lets plug those numbers into our equation!

95.994
-----------
164.086

When we divide those two numbers, we get .585. When we multiply that by 100, we get 58.5.

So, the percent compostition of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2, or, calcium nitrate, is 58.5%.
